I've seen them demo'd on YouTube by a hot chick with big boobs.
Looks like they work well.

The clock in your shop must run a lot slower than the clock in my shop.

Working 5:30 pm to 4:00...... the clock is VERY slow!

Looks like a nice stove but for one thing. When you set the pan or pot on top you will close off the flue. The X needs to give some room between the pot and where it's sitting. Your stove looks well built and sturdy I like it even though I cant tell how big it is from your pictures. Is it made from steel or aluminum?

It depends

How and where will you use it?

It's a solid design- backpacking, Glamping, Backyard in a quake?

That's a good observation. Maybe I should cut some openings near the top.
I cut it out of .12 316SS

I have the Omax file if anyone wants it

It looks like you built a really strong one that would last beyond an apocalypse. If you build more you might consider making the feeding chute a little bit longer , so that folks can feed in longer sticks and twigs without breaking them. That's the big benefit of those things is you can get a lot of heat from just twigs and sticks or even leaves, if you keep feeding them into the chute.

But there's also something called the Dakota fire hole that you can just make by digging two connected holes into the ground. Preferably using a mound on the side of a hill and you'll get that same oxygen feeding effect into your fire.

But again I say congratulations! It looks like you built a great one.

also if you make the chimney narrower at the top, like a upside-down funnel, once it starts drawing it will "rocket" a bit more. Not great for cooking like in a skillet, but great for boiling water.

I'd make the cross bars about a half an inch taller so the pan won't choke off the chimney. Nice work.

Here's mine. Cool little deal.

Sorry for the gigante pic. I can never get Imgur right.

And ours is for glamping. Having a cool little mini fire before bed, something you can roast a few mallows over a fire, and it REALLY spits out the heat. I'm not sure on the design on mine having TWO entry burn pots, but I plug the lower one with a couple of 2x4's and that seems to help with flow. If it's sucking too much, I will pull one of the lower 2x's partially out. Let it breathe some. You can get a pot to boil right quick on one with the right wood and a small little fire.

So just don't get THIS one, but I thik will the EASER in a pack or ultralight camping. The one I have is something you lug in a truck, but it's a monster. You'd have to really use it abunch for thatl.
